Hello. Welcome to Call Me Ishmael, a fansite dedicated to Herman Melville's Moby Dick, or the Whale. Why? Because I love it. It's one of my favorite books, and I think everything deserves at least one fansite. Here you will find all the information I can compile on this wonderful novel, both useful, useless, and merely strange.

This layout will change soon. Fluffiness is getting to me.

Updates:

10/15/03 + Um...I'm up to chapter 10. Not as regular as I promised. Well, chapter 10 comes just in time for Marriage Protection Week...yes, it's the chapter where Ishmael and Queequeg get "married". And then lie around in bed in "our heart's honeymoon". Whoot.

9/13/03 + Ok. It occured to me that while I was uploading new summaries and quotes lists, I was not, in fact, providing any links to the new pages o_O This problem has been fixed. I also put up a few name origins. Yeah, I know, the Biblical ones are the easy ones. So sue me.

I'll try to add at least a chapter (quote and summary) a day. I can't do much about the pictures as I am without a decent imaging program at this point in my life -_- but those will be up as soon as I am able. Sorry for my laziness...I'm working on it, really.

Anyway, links to the right, click click click.
